What Case are you Appealing?: [2026] DCR 92 Contempt of Court charge

Link to the Original Case: Lawsuit: Pending - Slime_Mario v. Department of Commerce [2026] DCR 92

Basis for Appeal: The district court has held me in direct contempt of court. This would be fine, if not for the fact that under the rule cited, 1.4.2 which states

"Misconduct that obstructs or interferes with the administration of justice or court affairs is enough to be held in Contempt of Court without prior warning.

Nowhere does my comment obstruct justice, considering that it is defined as ..."influencing, threatening, harming or impeding witnesses or giving false information to law enforcement" in the Criminal Code Act, and no other definition is given in any legal related documents.

As a matter of fact, the judge has had a prior interaction with me, where I appealed a contempt of court charge and got a $4,000 fine reduced to $1,000 in [2025] DCR 104 - Contempt of Court Charge - Appeal. This proves that a $12,000 fine from this judge is completely out of the ordinary.

This judge has a history of intertwining personal interactions with the law and desecrating the profession of law.

Thus, due to this judge's conflict of interest regarding my message as related to TSE, I ask that my contempt of court charge is dismissed due to improper procedure, as I believe such a message from me only warranted a warning.

Court Order

I have deliberated on this for some time, and although I find the $12,000 fine to be much higher than I would have ordered, it is certainly within the power of the District Court to order it. The law regarding Contempt of Court (Criminal Code Act, Part III, Section 2) clearly allows a fine of up to $12,000 and up to 10 minutes in jail.

As such, the only way this appeal could be heard by the Federal Court is if the Appellant was able to convince the Court that they may not have committed Contempt of Court. The Appellant has not done so.

In [2025] FCR 119 - Contempt of Court Charge - Appeal, the Hon. Justice Matthew100x said, "As illustrated in the history of our court, regardless of the time and definition of Contempt of Court, the Court at all levels has held that misconduct that obstructs or interferes with the administration of justice (the court proceedings) is enough to be held responsible for this crime." The Appellant in our appeal today mistakes "obstruction of the administration of justice" with the crime "Obstruction of Justice," however this is an error that holds no ground, and is furthermore nullified by the appeal cited by the Appellant - [2025] DCR 104 - Contempt of Court Charge - Appeal - where the Appellant made the same argument, but the Contempt of Court charge was upheld.

The Federal Court declines to hear this appeal.
